It still amazes me how kids learn to read. Hard to explain. It amazes teachers also. I have been in education now for 21 years and it still brings smiles to my face when I hear a student in kindergarten reading their first words. It is a very special time.
But what I enjoy even better is hearing young kids in Bible Classes reading God's Word. There is no better book to read than the Bible with the exciting stories of Noah, Moses, David and Goliath, Peter, Paul, and Stephen. There is nothing better than a young person reading the story about the Creation, the 10 Commandments, The Fiery Furnace, The Birth of Christ and the Crucifixion.
We need to encourage our kids to read. But we need to encourage our kids to read the Greatest Story that was ever written, God's Word. A story about a Savior that loved us so much that He gave himself for us.
